Websites websites are no fun... unless you MAKE THEM FUN!
Your website (believe it or not) can tell us WAY more about you than any 30 second self-tape or *God forbid* in-person audition. So make 'em count!
In this brief episode, we're talking about where to start and how to create a website, domain names, website building platforms, and different ways to sprinkle in your personality.
